1. Oprah Winfrey ($3.1 billion)

The entertainment mogul is having a resurgence of her on-screen career, including April's HBO film The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. The onetime Nashville news anchor will return to her TV reporting roots as a special contributor on 60 Minutes this fall. Her OWN network had its most-watched year in 2016, but the bulk of Winfrey's wealth is still derived from her talk show years. Weight Watchers is counting on the 'Oprah effect': she bought a 10% stake in 2015 and acts as a brand ambassador.
